“Bring Homecoming Home.”
These three words form the basis for the diamond jubilee Homecoming to be held November 10-13 according to Homecoming Chairman Tom Pflimlin. “In past years,” Pflimlin said, “the word ‘Homecoming’ has stood only for a series
of events takin? place in all Darts
of Los Angeles. The dance was held in Santa Monica, the parade on Wilshire Boulevard, and the reunions at a downtown hotel,” he said.
“This year all events will be held on campus to add furtfter meaning to the annual celebration.” Pflimlin added.
Homecoming events that promise to attract thousands of alumni and students include the parade, dance, Trolios, the all-university variety show; Flapper Day, observing the roaring twenties; a bonfire, the choosing of the queen and princesses, a barbecue and open house for the alumni, class reunions, a rally,* and the Washington-SC game.
In addition to this, campus organizations will be busy designing floats, house, and university avenue decorations.

In addition to bringing homecoming home, Pflimlin said that may other changes were in the offing. These include the purchasing of a permanent queens’ crown: adding women’s acts and mixed acts to Trolios; adding a sales committee to handle all Homecoming tickets; and giving campus organizations extra time to build floats and decorations.

Senate Group Here For Investigations
By United Press
Sept. 21—The smuggling of narcotics here from the Orient and Mexico and reports of subversive literature and sex novels in school libraries will be inves tigated in Los Angeles Monday by a U. S. Senate subcommittee on juvenile delinquency.
Topics of the investigation, se lected following a five-week preliminary investigation, were announced today by James H. Bobo, assistant committee counsel.
He said his group received reports from parents of subversive and possibly obscene literature in libraries of certain schools in the Los Angeles area.
However, he said the investigation would deal primarily *»ith narcotics.
He said investigation showed that half of the heroin smuggled here is a 90 per cent pure product originating at a plant in Mukden, Manchuria.
He also said he understood “much of the dope in Southern California comes ... by way of mule train from Baja California.” -K •* *

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 21 — The contention of 21 University of California professors that they are entitled to $290,291 in back and severance pay as a result of their discharge for refusing to sign a loyalty oath was upheld today in Sacramento County Superior Court.
Superior Judge John Quincy
by David C. Henley
Lenore Monosson Patterson, controversial ASSC secretary, yesterday emphatically denied all reports that she has resigned her post. Mrs. Patterson’s denial came following Monday’s announcement by ASSC President Bill Van Al-
recent marriage to Pat Patterson, SC undergraduate.
“I was shocked when I heard that Bill was telling everyone, including the Daily Trojan, that I had resigned my job as secretary,” Mrs. Patterson said.
“I saw Bill last Friday and told him th-it I was still undecided whether to keep or resign my position. I told him it all depended on Pat’s (her husband's) plans. Ready To Work “I also said that I would be prepared and ready to take over the business of his first senate meeting,” she continued.
Mrs. Patterson was visibly dis-trssed as she related the details of the secretarial mixup yesterday afternoon in her off - campus apartment.
“The least he (Van Alstyne) could have asked me if I had or had not decided to leave my post before he made that statement. He could have telephoned me at any time to find out just what my plans were,” she added.
Written Petition “Even if I had decided to resign, I would have had to present Bill witn a written petition telling of my reasons for resignation before it could be formally announced,” Mrs. Patterson continued. •
When told of Mrs. Patterson’s denial of resignation, Van Alstyne countered:
“Yes, I did talk to Lenore last Friday but from the gist of the conversation, it seemed to me that she was just about ready to resign. Since then, she has shown no interest in her secretarial duties and has not once shown up at her office. In other words, sh has not fulfilled her responsibilities.
Bob Tells Bill
“The other day, Bob Wallach (last year’s president of tne sophomore class) told me that Lenore had told him that she was going to resign.”
“This was enough for me. With Wallach's statement, coupled with Mrs. Patterson’s lack of interest,
I took it upon myself to announce her resignation,” Van Alstyne said.
Meanwhile, following Van Alstyne’s request Monday for eligible women to file petitions for the secretarial post, two such petitions were received.
Refuse* To Mention He refused to give the. names of the two applicants, stating, “it would serve no purpose to mention these girls’ names publically as we might not need them now anyway.”
Before Mrs. Patterson issued her explosive statement yesterday Senator-at-Large Murray Bring stated that Van Alstyne had acted without authority in issuing petitions for a pro-tem secretary. * Bring said that the Senate would have to approve any resignation before it could be official.
Brown issued a memorandum opinion to that affect in favor of the professors, who were fired in 1950. He pointed out the matter still must be heard in court, but his opinion was expected to become an important part of the case.
The general gist of the actions,” the judge wrote, “is that these professors were discharged unlawfully under a final decision of the California Supreme Court.”
The Supreme Court ordered the professors reinstated but did not touch upon the specific question of back pay. The Regents of the University held that failure to mention back pay was, in effect, a denial of it.
* * *
SACRAMENTO, Sept. 21—Gov. Goodwin J. Knight charged Richard Graves, Democratic candidate for governor, today with seeking to “scuttle by dishonest means . . . critically needed liquor reform.”
“It is time the people of California should know,” Knight said in a blistering statement, “Graves has become the willing and unprincipled tool of the most vicious anti-reform elements in the liquor industry.”
